| Beschrijving voorzijde | A stylized rose in full bloom occupies the upper central portion of the field, depicted with detailed petals and a thorned stem descending toward the lower rim. Surrounding the stem in the lower and right field are twelve five-pointed stars arranged in a circular arc, evoking the symbolic ring of stars associated with European unity. The field is otherwise unadorned, with no legend or inscription present. The design is rendered in a linear, contemporary engraving style. |

| Aanvullende informatie |
The ECU — European Currency Unit — was never legal tender in Belgium or anywhere else; it existed purely as a basket currency unit used for accounting within the European Monetary System from 1979 onward. Belgium's decision to strike ECU-denominated pieces in copper placed them firmly in the souvenir and collector market rather than commerce. The timing of issues spanning the final decades before euro adoption gave them an elegiac quality that the market has never fully priced in.
The copper composition distinguishes these from the silver ECU pieces struck concurrently for premium collectors.
